The coastal Carolina dream is awaiting at 714 Hughes Rd. Imagine being greeted by the sunrise and your private long view, spanning the pristine intracoastal waters all the way to the Atlantic Ocean. Close the day with a cocktail and majestic sunsets from your Bali inspired wrap around porch. Privacy- where you'll hear little more than the wind rustling through the mature oak trees and perhaps a passing boat returning from a fishing excursion. This home and expansive lot offer a unique opportunity to live within the sought after Washington Acres community. The property boasts immediate proximity to the coveted anchorages and back beaches of Rich's Inlet, Lea Island and S Topsail Inlet-literally a boaters delight that will not be duplicated easily. Deeded boat ramp and water access is across the street. Built originally in 2018, the coastal modern design captures rustic island charm, all-seasons front porch living and waterway/ocean views. Abundant natural light floods the open living spaces, graced by vaulted ceilings and beautiful rustic milled hickory wood floors meticulously crafted from trees removed while building this home. The thoughtfully designed layout keeps you connected to the water from every room. An elegant coastal kitchen features marble countertops, stainless appliances, bar seating and pantry. The master bedroom offers custom design elements including bamboo roll down shades, inset fireplace for cool evenings, barn doors, custom oak slab vanity top, high end closet system w/under mount lighting and soaking tub with ocean views. The first floor features a bonus/media room, wet bar & beverage fridge, stained concrete floors and an additional bedroom with full bath. This is the perfect spot for entertaining, creating a space unique to your interests or area for kids to spread out and play. Don't miss the oversized, insulated garage with work station and additional storage for all your toys or tools. Permitted options are available to add an additional barn or detached garage at the rear of the property. Water access homes encompassing the best of coastal Carolina living are rare- don't let this one get away!
